Transaction

A transaction object is created when a payment or payment-related event takes place on a card issued via the Lithic platform. Examples of events triggering the creation of a transaction object include a purchase authorization such as when a card is used to spend at a coffee shop, or a credit authorization such as when a merchant requests to issue a refund to the card.

The object is also updated whenever new events take place that modify the transaction. An example of this is when an outstanding purchase authorization is cleared by the merchant.

See Card Transactions Guide for more details.
